If the facts are against you, argue the law. If the law is against you, argue the facts. If the law and the facts are against you, pound the table and yell like hell.

Not sure if intentional, but that's Casey Anthony, suspected of killing her daughter. Some dark humor if so... I guess.

For those like me who didn't know what he looked like, this is what he looks like in a similar pose,

I was curious too. This is my best guess,

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chernobyl_disaster

The reactor crew could ascertain only that the radiation levels were somewhere above 0.001 R/s (3.6 R/h), while the true levels were vastly higher in some areas.

Because of inaccurate low readings, reactor crew chief Aleksandr Akimov assumed that the reactor was intact. The evidence of pieces of graphite and reactor fuel lying around the building was ignored, and the readings of another dosimeter brought in by 04:30 were dismissed under the assumption that the new dosimeter must have been defective.

Note the name Akimov in the post.

If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.

Children play outside, in a gym, on a playground, in their own house, not in a restaurant, nor a library, or a theater, etc. I'm trying to enjoy my personal time and space too.

Look similar to the mountain pine beetle which is going wild here in North American pine forests. Increase global warming is making more mild winters, less of the larva are dying due to lack of freezing temps which normal kill them off and regulate their numbers.
